Finch undergoes hamstring surgery

Aaron Finch underwent surgery on his left hamstring on Tuesday, after the Australian opener sustained an injury on Indian Premier League duty.

Playing for the Mumbai Indians - who are coached by former Australia captain Ricky Ponting - Finch badly injured his hamstring in their seven-wicket loss to the Rajasthan Royals.

The opener, who made scores of 135 and 81 in an otherwise underwhelming Cricket World Cup campaign in February/March, was forced to retire hurt on 10, and his IPL campaign was officially over after undergoing surgery in Melbourne.
